ELS provides a forum for environmental information and networking. The members attend community events, regional conferences, and discuss pending legislation. We network with the professional community for support, guidance, and information about the environmental practice arena. Students are encouraged to explore their interests in a variety of environmental and natural resource issues. To further sculpt student interests, ELS hosts an annual Environmental Law Conference with which we bring speakers and practitioners to discuss current areas of law. ELS also supports Environs, the Journal of Environmental Law and Policy at King Hall.
Environmental Law Symposium
Each year, through ELS students organize a symposium, which brings experts from around the region and the country to provide their perspective on important current issues. The 2012 ELS Symposium will be held on Friday, April 13th. This year's symposium will explore the obstacles of meeting California's Renewables Portfolio Standard Program through solar development.
